Low cost carriers The following is a list of low cost carriers organized by home country. A low-cost carrier or low-cost airline (also known as a no-frills, discount or budget carrier or airline) is an airline that offers generally low fares in exchange for eliminating many traditional passenger services. See the low cost carrier article for more information. Regional airlines, which may compete with low-cost airlines on some routes are listed at the article 'List of regional airlines.'

Low Cost Monitor 2/2008
Low Cost Monitor 2/2008 - A Joint Analysis of DLR and ADV - 617 Routes The current Low Cost Carrier Market in Germany Autumn 2008 The current Low Cost Carrier Market in Germany (2008) Since several years the low cost carrier (LCC) market is an essential part of the German air transport market. The Low Cost Monitor, jointly issued by ADV and DLR, twice a year informs on LCC’s essential features and current developments in this market segment, particularly as to the number and relative importance of low cost carriers, their offers including the air fare, and the passenger demand. The offers reflected by the current Monitor are based on one reference week of the summer flight schedule 2008. The passenger traffic indicated relates to the half year total of 2008. Airlines 4 The airlines involved in the Low Cost business, design their flight services quite differently. Due to this inhomogeneity, only a few clear distinctive criteria can be defined, for example low fares and direct sale via the Internet. Thus, in some cases a certain scope of discretion arises when allocating an airline to the LCC-segment. Furthermore, for several airlines amalgamations of business models are seen, which additionally complicate the accurate allocation of airlines to the Low Cost Market. The authors of this Monitor currently classify 23 airlines operating on German airports as low cost carriers. These are in detail (see also Table 1): Aer Lingus (EI) (www.aerlingus.com), Fleet: 33 Aircraft (A320: 27/A321: 6) Air Baltic (BT) (www.airbaltic.com), Fleet: 25 Aircraft -

The Evolution of Selected Enterprises in the Aviation Industry in Romania and Poland After 1989
Revista de Științe Politice. Revue des Sciences Politiques • No. 67 • 2020: 170 - 180 ORIGINAL PAPER From a state-owned giant to a market enterprise? The evolution of selected enterprises in the aviation industry in Romania and Poland after 1989 Andrzej Dubicki1) Abstract Year 1989 was an important turning point, not only in the political history of Poland and Romania, but also for the transport sector of both countries. Political events allowed for a thorough reconstruction of the air transport sector in both countries. Both airfleets entered the new political reality as state-owned enterprises, though with different traditions. Both countries have begun transforming their own aviation market in a similar place, with a rather outdated air fleet, with some few modern aircraft. Nevertheless, the further development of respective aviation markets took place in different ways, as long as no native competitor for LOT appeared in Poland for various reasons, the situation is somewhat different in Romania and TAROM now experiences serious competition from the low-cost carrier BlueAir. Both state-owned enterprises had to take advantage of public aid, LOT in 2012, while TAROM in 2020.Time will show whether the Romanian national carrier will be able to repeat the success of the Polish one, which after a period of recession is now able to expand on the European market.The aim of the article is to show and compare the development of the Polish and Roumanian air markets and to try to find common points of the situation created after 1989. There will be used various sources, including monographs, analysis and articles of this specific topic. -

The Polish Market for Holidays on Bornholm – by Sea and Air
The Polish Market for Holidays on Bornholm – By Sea and Air itel Carl Henrik Marcussen Acknowledgement: Includes contributions by Jagna Noren, Anna Pallikaras and Lene Feldthus Andersen 1 October 2007 Foreword The project was initiated by Bornholm Airport, Destination Bornholm, the Regional Municipality of Bornholm and Danvifo and funded by Bornholm’s Growth Forum, the Regional Municipality of Bornholm and Bornholm Airport. The objective was twofold: On the one hand, to address the question of how to improve accessibility to Bornholm for visitors from Poland; On the other hand, to address the question of how to encourage the visitors from Poland to stay longer once on Bornholm. In 2006 there were 72% one day visitors among the Polish arrivals from Poland via Nexø and 38% one day visitors from Poland via Rønne. Altogether there were 47.000 passengers (23.500 arrivals) from Poland via Nexø in 2006, and about 12.000 passengers (6.000 arrivals) via Rønne. Of these 59.000 passengers (29.500 arrivals) 35% or 10.300 stayed overnight. Close to 90% or about 9.200 were Poles of which 6.100 came via Nexø and 3.100 via Rønne. The Polish visitors who came via Nexø stayed on average 2.5 nights. Those who came via Rønne stayed at least 5 nights, resulting in just over 30.000 bed nights in total, corresponding to just about one night on average per Polish arrival to Bornholm. There were just below 20.000 registered polish bed nights in 2006, distributed as follows: 71% in official camping sites (71%), 28% in hotels/holiday centres and 1% in youth hostels (1%). -

The Impact of the Migration Processes on the Low Cost Airlines' Routs Between EU Countries and Poland After Its Accession to T
Prof. Ewa Pancer-Cybulska Dr Ewa Szostak Dr Łukasz Olipra Wroclaw University of Economics Department of Economic Policy and European Regional Studies ul. Komandorska 118/120 53-345 Wrocław Poland The impact of the migration processes on the low cost airlines’ routs between EU countries and Poland after its accession to the EU, and on the te rritorial cohesion of Polish regions. Introduction After Poland joined the European Union in 2004 we could observe two phenomena: huge emigration of Poles to the old member states of the EU (mainly to United Kingdom and Ireland) and on the second hand a very dynamic increase in the number of flight destinations from regional airports served by lo w cost carriers (which also meant an increase in the number of passengers ). The aim of this article is to answer the question, whether the directions of emigration after Poland entered to the European Union had a significant impact on the routes of low cost airlines in Poland. Can we say, that the migration forced LCCs to establish new flights and connections in a particular direction or not? And if yes - to what extent. What is happening when emigrants are coming back to Poland. If there are significant relation between movement of migrants and number of flights of low cost carriers from Polish airports? Finally, can we say, that growing emigration and growing number of LCCs flights helped to improve territorial cohesion of Polish regions with the core of Europe? The authors put forward the thesis that the development of a connection network was determined by the migration, for economic reasons, from Poland to Western Europe after its entrance into the EU. -
